Pastels – Techniques and Tutorials for the Complete Beginner offers a comprehensive introduction to one of the visual arts’ most versatile mediums through 10 step-by-step projects.
An introductory guide to a way of painting that delivers detail, depth and texture without having to mix a single colour. Written by a professional pastels artist, the book offers 10 tutorials in a variety of subjects that includes animals, flowers and landscapes.
Beginners are encouraged to develop their own method of working and style via the same process used in traditional painting. They are supported in that by ‘Focus On’ sections that give essential advice on using techniques and materials with confidence to produce rewarding works of art.
